[Intro]
Three A.M.
Power’s out.
No fan.
No aircon.
Big meeting tomorrow.
…
And then I fucking heard it.
Bzzzzzzzzzzzz.
[Verse 1]
Hot as fuck and twice as humid
Stuck to the mattress like a human puddle
Trying to sleep before a big damn meeting
Instead I’m entering a survival struggle
Everything’s dark
Everything’s quiet
Everything’s finally going my way
Then right beside my fucking ear
I hear the sound that ruined the day
Bzzzzzzzzzz.
For the love of god!
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe it’s just one mosquito
Maybe it’ll leave me alone
Maybe—
…
For the love of god!
[Chorus]
The legend of the mosquito hating guy
Started on a sleepless night
One tiny stupid bastard
One giant fucking grudge
And a fight that lasted till daylight
Bzzzzzzzz.
Where are you?
Bzzzzzzzz.
Come back here!
I swear to God
When I find you
One of us disappears
For the love of god!
[Verse 2]
Now I was fast back in the day
Fastest kid in the whole damn school
Not because I loved athletics
I was just avoiding those fucking bullies
Yellow belt in Taekwondo
Yes sir.
Reflexes sharp
Or so I thought
Because somehow this flying asshole
Could dodge every move I brought
Wax on.
Missed.
Wax off.
Missed.
Hadouken and Sonic boom.
Missed.
The mosquito was out there
Looking like Neo from The Matrix
For the love of god!
[Pre-Chorus]
At this fucking point
I’m no longer trying to sleep
This has become personal
Fuck this shit.
[Chorus]
The legend of the mosquito hating guy
And his lifelong enemy
I’ve lost fucking count
Of all the fucking battles
But somehow that thing keeps beating me
Bzzzzzzzz.
Near my ear.
Bzzzzzzzz.
Then disappears.
This isn’t insect behavior
This is psychological warfare
For the love of god!
[Bridge]
Four A.M.
Bedroom looks like a crime scene.
Pillows everywhere.
Blankets everywhere.
I’ve punched myself twice.
Kicked the wall once.
Still no mosquito.
Then…
Silence.
Finally.
Maybe it’s gone.
Maybe I won.
Maybe—
BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!
RIGHT IN MY FUCKING EAR!!!
FUUUUCCCKKKK!!!
[Guitar Solo]
[Final Chorus] [Key Lift]
The legend of the mosquito hating guy
Will probably never end
I’ve defeated jobs
Relationships
Traffic
And bureaucrats
But this tiny winged demon
Remains undefeated
Bzzzzzzzz.
Final score:
Mosquito: 1
Me: 0
For now…
[Outro]
Five A.M.
Alarm went off.
Never slept.
Still had the meeting.
Still got the job done.
The mosquito?
Never found the body.
…
He’s still out there.
Waiting.
Bzzzzzzzzzz.
For the love of god!
